the reason gas prices are always going to be higher in cali than elsewhere is cali has strict emission regulatons and refines their own fuel. it costs more to do it that way.
not only that, California has one of the highest, if not the highest tax per gallon. Here in New orleans, the gas tax per gallon is .30ish cents. cali has a .70 cents tax per gallon tax, maybe more now. Cali adds almost a dollar per gallon just in its own state tax.
